Have to start and say that I got this monitor on sale for a pretty good price of $169. The box was pretty easy to open, and the monitor was easy to get out as well. If you have a second hand to help you, it's probably a good idea to get them. You can do it by yourself, but it's just better to save yourself the sanity of setting it up by yourself.

The monitor is nice, even though it's only shooting out 2560x1080. I have the frame rate set to "200hz" right now and I don't seem to be experiencing any problems yet, though I haven't dug down to deep into it just yet.

Overall I'm pretty impressed with the monitor otherwise and everyone seems to be enjoying it as well.

One thing to recommend though is to get your own mount for this, as the one that comes with it is -not- adjustable other than slight tilting.

I got this monitor because my desk space wouldn't properly fit two 1080p 24" monitors, and it's easier to stay focused when everything is all on one screen. I was surprised and skeptical when I found this monitor because it's a 30" ultrawide with good reviews, but a lesser known brand. I had a Sceptre monitor back in the CRT display era, so I decided to give it a shot, since the monitor I had back then worked perfectly fine throughout its use.

Pros:
- Surprisingly bright, I had to turn it down to 50% for white background windows/browser pages.
- Very clear for colors and detail, it seems noticeably better than the monitors I had previously. I can't speak to professional color schemes, since I primarily use it for programming work and gaming.
- Buttery smooth. I didn't think I would notice much difference between 144hz and 200hz, but it does seem even smoother. Competitive games like CS:GO will definitely show a difference.
- PIP and PBP capability, which is fantastic for when I actually need two monitors. I can use the same source (main PC HDMI and DP) for both monitors also.
- 4 ports allows me to have two setups with dual monitors, one for work laptop and one for main PC.
- Supports standard 1920x1080p resolution, although the desktop will stretch and games/applications might have the "black bar" effect, which doesn't really bother me much.
- 1 DP and 3 HDMI (the DP can support up to 200hz, HDMI 1 can support up to 165hz, and HDMI 2 and HDMI 3 can support up to 85hz)
- OSD is extremely intuitive, and the buttons at the bottom make sense. I didn't even need the manual.
- Costs the same as two budget 24" 1080p monitors.
- I appreciate the blue light reduction settings, makes it easy on the eyes.
- Has speakers and doesn't require headphones to use them. They have pretty decent quality for a monitor.
- The screen is about as tall as a standard 1080p 24" monitor (which is what I'm used to), the screen size itself is 27.8"W x 16.1"H (30" diagonally)

Cons:
- PBP for dual monitors stretches the displays to fit, making both look compressed, kind of annoying but not much can be done without changing both desktop resolutions. PIP mode can work well for fixing this too if you don't mind sacrificing part of your main screen.
- "Black bar" effect on applications that don't support 2560x1080p, expected with an ultrawide monitor though.
- The stand that comes with it is kind of short, raising the screen maybe 6" above the desk. Tilt works to fix this a bit.
- Backlight is dim and only glows red, but it can be turned off.
- FreeSync works, but I've had some trouble getting it to work properly (never had much luck with FreeSync anything though).

I will update if I encounter any problems, but I'm very impressed so far.

Updates after a few days of use:
- The monitor is VESA mountable with an included bracket (75x75 pattern) designed to go on the back of the monitor (in place of the stand). The monitor is about 12.15lbs, fairly light for a monitor of this size, so it should fit most VESA mounts. If you have a VESA mount larger than 100x100, you might want to consider using longer screws and standoffs, since there is a small overhang on the back of the monitor that might block larger VESA mounts from laying flush when screwing into the included bracket.
- Some of my previous monitors had about 1ms response time, and this monitor has 5ms response time. I don't think it is hugely noticeable, but in fast paced competitive games, you might see mild ghosting if you're used to faster response times. Like most curved monitors, it's a VA panel, so the slower response times are somewhat expected.

One drawback is when it comes to PC's and Monitors, you won't know for sure until you try it out for yourself. You can ask the seller questions, but sometimes the question you should have asked isn't obvious until the thing is sitting on your desk. It may boil down to something very specific to your application/environment/ergonomics that the seller, or even the manufacturer can't give you a definitive answer because of the subjective nature of sitting in front of a screen for hours at a time.
A big help for me in determining which to order is to download the user manual and quick set-up guides from the Manufacturer Website. By carefully reading the specs and going through the OSD Menu entries I am sure that what I'm ordering, at least on paper, has the right specs. This way, the monitors should have all the right comparable specs and you should end up with what you really want. Still, as was it was in my case you may have to try it out before you can finalize the purchase.
I need a widescreen curved monitor such as this 30" Scepter with PBP (split screen) so as to be able to work on documents from two different inputs, i.e. two PC's. So I am reviewing this from more of a business angle, not from a Gaming criteria.
Basically, it is a simple, single-purpose gaming PC Monitor. If used just for gaming on an Nvidia Graphics PC, it works as advertised. You've got to match video cards, max res, number and type of inputs, hdmi 1.4, 2.0? Is Displayport 1.2 enough? I finally narrowed down to a 30-32 inch 21:9 ultrawide, curved, (gaming) monitor though I would only use it for business. I need a split screen with quick and easy transition from one input to another. To change inputs from one PC to another on this monitor requires 11 button pushes and the dual split-screens are squished horizontally as determined by the screen width and 2560hz horizontal resolution. Nothing really wrong with the monitor itself. My opinion is that this monitor should be best acknowledged as a single input Gaming monitor. It was not quite suitable for my application. Better would be a wider monitor with higher horizontal frequency.
The Wall Plate though not it's intended use can be attaching it to a standard 4 hole Vesa mounting arm plate. It comes with a 75mm 4 hole Adapter, so it can be done. Two little bolts attach one side to the monitor, the other side can be fastened to a regular Monitor mounting plate (75mm hole pattern) on the extended arm of your vesa desktop stand mounted to your desk . You will have to obtain an additional four M4 x 20mm bolts, with washers and nuts to bolt (fasten) Wall Mount to the Vesa plate of your stand. Easily accomplished except for obtaining your own hardware. No wall plate screws are supplied as there are different types of wall mounts.
At this price point, as I've mentioned, this monitor is designed to work best with a PC having an Nvidia Video Card using GSync. They tell you up front how it's designed to work. With the right hardware you can get the 160 - 200 hz frequency for high-end gaming. With Displayport 1.2 I was able to get 120hz picture that was good enough for ordinary Windows 10 desktop, but I can't comment how it would work for gaming. Need Displayport 1.4, or Hdmi 2.0 to obtain 160-200hz. The Nvidia drivers must be up to date and can be downloaded from Nvidia Website. The driver page lists a long paragraph of Nvidia cards compatible with that driver. It may work well enough with other PC video cards as well, but I was using an old GT 620. No problem with the latest driver but not suitable for intensive gaming.
Using with a Mac, (I have a Macbook Pro) is a crapshoot. Older Macs are designed to work with older Mac compatible hardware. This monitor, as is the case with the majority of OEM generic monitors, is directed at the Windows PC Market. If it works with your Mac, well and good, but don't count on it, not for serious gaming for sure. My 2011 Macbook Pro has early thunderbolt - backwards compatible with mini-displayport. I used a mini-displayport cable with short mini-displayport to Displayport adapter. Macbook has a 2560x1440 spec video output. It connected with the monitor but full-screen picture was a little vertically flattened, (i.e.horizontall stretched); not acceptable. Mac System Preferences Display Icon showed 1080p. That is correct, but the Macbook is designed for 4:3 ratio. My Macbook was never intended to handle 21:9 aspect ratio; not the fault of the monitor. Works perfect though with my 21.5 inch Acer screen. Newer macs with thunderbolt 3, a.k.a. USB-C should be compatible with USB-C input monitors.
In order to avoid the hassle of a return, my advice is to ask the seller - better yet, download the manual, especially with third-party sellers as return shipping is pretty expensive. Be aware of the intended use and specs and consider that in order to get a monitor with better options, you might have to spend another $100.00 or more. What I could determine is that used as intended and properly set up, it will do what is advertised at 160hz For business, with dual inputs, maybe not, but the manufacturer does not advertise it as anything but designed for gaming so I really can't complain. I had to try it to find out.

Let's start off with the positives, shall we? I got this monitor when it was on a discount at around half the price! It has 200hz refresh rate so you will almost never have to worry about bad framerate. I personally like the feature to be able to switch between all inputs. I have my PC and consoles hooked up through HDMI all accessible through a small menu. It also had HDR which depending on the games, it may look good or bad, but I can't say anything bad about it. The monitor also has AMD FreeSync which is pretty cool because I use AMD hardware.

Now time for the downsides... By the "From the manufacturer" heading when you scroll down on the page, it mentions an "edgeless design." I can say more than certain that it has quite the edge that is very noticeable. The pictures show it with smaller edges too! Some other downsides that the RGB is only red or none. Another design feature I dislike is the stand for it. I cannot stand that the stand takes up a lot of space. The angled feet make it really easy for it so slide off something it is close to the edge of a desk. For me, the stand and rear design tried too hard to look gamer-ish.

The downsides are not enough to knock off more than one star. This is a monitor I DO RECOMMEND.

I've had this monitor for about a year now and it's still doing just as good as it did right out of the box. This is the first monitor I've invested in, I was mainly looking for a curved monitor and particularly white to match my white pc build. I would've liked to mount it on my walls but unfortunately my walls aren't sturdy enough for mounting, but the legs were easy to assemble. This monitor checked all the boxes at least for my needs! Vibrant, high refresh rate, and stunning looks too!
